TVGuide reports that LeAnn Rimes will have a guest starring role on the new season of FX's ANGER MANAGEMENT. The episode is schedule to air early next month.

According to the report, the singer will portray "the sister of one of Charlie's (Charlie Sheen) prison group members who will hook up with Sheen's character during the episode."

Rimes made her breakthrough into country music in 1996 with her debut album, Blue, which reached number one on the Top Country Albumschart and was certified multiplatinum in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The album's eponymous leadoff single, "Blue", became a Top 10 hit and Rimes gained national acclaim for her similarity to Patsy Cline's vocal style. When she released her sophomore studio effort in 1997, You Light Up My Life: Inspirational Songs, she moved towards country pop material, which set the trend for a string of albums released into the next decade.

Rimes has won many awards, including two Grammys, three ACMs, a CMA, 12 Billboard Music Awards, and one American Music award. She has also released ten studio albums and three compilation albums and two greatest hits albums, one released in the US and the other released internationally, through her record label of 13 years, Asylum-Curb, and placed over 40 singles on American and international charts since 1996. She has sold over 37 million records worldwide, with 20.3 million album sales in the United States according to Nielsen SoundScan.
